Event guide
Why this event is on the calendar
OpenAI DevDay is a one-day developer gathering in San Francisco focused on using OpenAI’s tools in practice. The official 2026 page describes technical sessions, hands-on demos and workshops, direct time with teams building the products, and a keynote that will be livestreamed.
The in-person event is application-based rather than an open walk-in conference. OpenAI says it is aimed at engineers, technical founders, researchers and technical leaders who are already building with AI or ready to start, while people who are not attending in person can follow the keynote and later session recordings online.
Who gets value from it
Hands-on developers, engineers, technical founders, researchers and technical leaders building with AI.
How the day tends to work
For invited attendees, the published format includes technical sessions, demos, workshops and peer exchange with OpenAI teams. The keynote is livestreamed; OpenAI says other sessions will be recorded and posted after the event.
